How Can A Commercial Litigation Lawyer Help?

Commercial litigation matters arise in many different venues and contexts. The facts of each case are essential in determining where the matter will be heard, and our dedicated Ohio commercial litigation attorneys regularly handle cases involving all of the following:

  • Ohio state court
  • Federal court
  • Administrative hearings
  • Private arbitration
  • Mediation

Often, businesses will choose a form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) before taking a case to court. An experienced attorney can represent your interests in many different types of ADR options, including mediation, conditionally binding arbitration and binding arbitration. Sometimes, contracts require that a business dispute go through arbitration rather than to court, and this frequently benefits the business owner.

In situations where ADR is not possible or cannot resolve the issue, our commercial litigation lawyers are prepared to represent your interests in court. Even when you go to court, they will continue working toward an acceptable settlement so that the issue can be resolved quickly and in a manner that is acceptable to you. Our attorneys have experience handling cases in both state and federal court, and they can speak with you about which court likely has jurisdiction in your case.
